I'm South East Asian and this place is legit!

Brisket Banh Mi is one of the best I've ever had and it's only 10 bucks. The pho broth is very fragrant and beefy too.

Hope this place stays in business for as long as I am here.

The food was absolutely delicious! Fresh ingredients, quick service, and a spotless restaurant made the experience even better. I really enjoyed savoring my pho with my officemates, and I can’t wait to come back with my family!

I very rarely leave bad reviews. I didn’t even eat here. The women at the counter was so so rude. I literally just said, you obviously don’t want my money and walked out.

I can’t speak to the food but if you want to be treated like trash, come on in.

Excellent food, but it is extremely tight sitting inside.

This is quite possibly the best Vietnamese food I’ve had in my entire life (as someone who grown up in Houston and rode a motorbike from Hanoi to Saigon).

Inconsistent food quality. Order Pad Thai one time, great, the other swimming in sauce! Yuck.

I recently dined at Bahn Pho, and had a very disappointing experience. Before the bad, I want to acknowledge that the food was pretty good. I had the special pho and the broth was flavorful and the meat tasted good. However, that’s unfortunately where the good parts end. We came in with a group of 5, and were told to push tables together ourselves, and were given water that was lukewarm at best. When the server came to took our order, she seemed to not understand what we were asking for, and when we politely asked her to read back the order to double check she just said “No.” I understand that there may be a language barrier, but if you are the only front of house staff for a restaurant, having a grasp on the language is important. The food came out quick, and without much trouble. Unfortunately, in my dish there was a hair. Upon bringing this to the attention of our waiter, she took the hair off the plate I had placed it on and walked away. At the end of the meal, one person walked up to pay and told her he’d be paying for the entire table. She still split the bill even after explaining to her that we wanted it all on one, resulting in us paying their 4% credit card fee 5 times. Before paying, we asked again, still were told to just tap and it wasn’t fixed. My friend, who speaks Vietnamese, translated what was being said while we were paying. “These kids. They don’t know how to behave in public. I bet they won’t tip.” Firstly, in a town with a college nearby, accommodating college kids should not be a burden. Secondly, we tipped 20%, which was generous for this service, and all of the employees could see that.

Overall, the food was pretty tasty, but the service made me regret dining here and I will not be returning.

So I’ve ordered from this restaurant multiple times through UberEats, and the food has been tasty, consistent, and fresh every time. I’ve had the vermicelli bowl, pad thai, papaya salad, and lotus salad. Meat is fresh and tender. I especially love their use of fresh mint. Definitely a recommend from me! Reliably good food. 👍🏼👍🏼

Ambiance is nice, could use some music maybe better artwork. Menu at a glance very easy to read, self explanatory. Prices are really fair in my opinion.
There might be a slight language barrier depending your server but that’s always a good sign.
If anything our waiteress came off a bit rude which if the food is AMAZING, then that’s that but if the food is just BASIC well….
I’m here w my partner and while i wait, i ordered about 4 out of the 6 appetizers that they have here.
The other was a salad (not very interesting if you ask me) and then the summer role, didn’t really peak my interest.
From the Bahn Mi aka the sandwiches i ordered the smoke brisket one, it sounded the best. The special…. not a fan of the idea of a “patty” baguette right now and didn’t want a grilled sandwich either.
Have yet to order our mains, the most exciting part!
And we will not be ordering from the vegetarian menu this time. Depending how the night goes i’ll let you know whether or not this is a MUST-GO-TO in hoboken or simply a place to visit if you find the time.
Some plates have just arrived!
Crab spring Roll TO DIE FOR! Turned it into a lettuce wrap, added sriracha and chili oil along with the duck sauce for an extra kick, and let me just say i need 20 more!
So many negative reviews as well on the Bahn Mi but as my partner put it “people don’t know what they’re talking about”, perfect amount of meat and the bread is crunchy like a cuban sandwich! Has a sweet and savory bbq flavor to it, me being me i just had to add some spice! Base on my conclusion my partner was right not stale at all, it’s pretty good! STOP, dip it in the sweet fish sauce IT TASTE SENSATIONAL, like those episode of food wars where they taste the MC cooking!
The VIETNAMESE GLAZED CHICKEN WINGS, LORD TAKE ME NOW, IT WAS HEAVEN SENT! WISH THERE WAS MORE OF A CRUNCH BUT THE FLAVOR WAS AMAZING.
And let’s just say my partner and I are a bit of a connoisseur with wings, we’ve traveled to the city and other place all around just for them and these were pretty dam good, that you have to come here just for the wings!
For a drink choice i got a peach sparking and it’s so flavorful! You can really taste the peach, i’m not much of a seltzer drinker cause it tend to hurt my throat but it was fizzy enough for even someone like me to enjoy.
Now onto the mains, i got the special pho and my partner got the make your own pho w rare beef. We both added extra extra chili oil for spice, the veggies, some basil and lime! AND WHEN I SAY YUMMY, my tummy agrees!
Our final appetizer came out the ribs, we did have to reorder them cause she forgot to put it in but def worth the wait! They’re, “finger licking good”, the sauce that’s on them is so good, and flavorful you don’t even need to add anything to it, we did lettuce wrapped them and thought rice would be a good side w them if anything. My partner said it was the perfect amount of fat/meat ratio and i hav to agree.
I wasn’t really feeling dessert this time around especially since we were getting beers after this but so far the meal is a 5 out of 5.
Service i’ll have to give them a 3.8
Bill was around $98 for ALL THE FOOD WE GOT AND I GAVE AN EXTRA $12 for the tip. Would’ve given more if she was bit nicer.

Is this a MUST GO TO place in hoboken, i wouldn’t necessarily say so. BUT if you’re in the mood for any kind of vietnamese food this is probably your best bet at authentic food with an angry little Vietnamese lady aggressively gesturing at you, THEN YOU FOUND YOUR PLACE!

Banh pho is one of my favorite places in Hoboken!! However, service is as one would expect for authentic Asian food - fast but no frills.
We often walk in and are ignored and not attended to for a few minutes as they only have one person waiting on tables. Today, the table was not cleared that they sat us down at, they touch the dirty plates with the same gloves that touch our clean ones, and though we said multiple times we had 5 people in our party, they tried to take away the third table so the 5th person would be crammed on the edge of two, even though there are other tables free.

Please hire more staff and be more customer-friendly!! your food is bomb.

The spicy vegan pho was very good. I was a little surprised that the noodles were a little overcooked but overall the food was tasty.

I was waiting for over ten minutes and the woman at the counter was very rude.She didn't ask me if I wanted to sit down or take my order. I assume it's because i'm black. I will not be patronizing this place

Best pho in Hoboken / Jersey City!

The interior design is very similar to Pho express. Seems no beef tendons on the menu.

Lydia Wang

The worst pho I have ever had.
